Business & Economics - Premium Collection - Enriched edition 30+ Titles in One Volume

Thorstein Veblen

Publisher: DigiCat

Summary

In "Business & Economics - Premium Collection," Thorstein Veblen explores the intricate intersections between business practices and economic theory, set against the backdrop of early 20th-century capitalism. Veblen's literary style is characterized by its incisive wit and sociological perspective, offering critical insights into the motivations of entrepreneurs and the societal shifts influenced by economic behavior. This collection delves into his seminal concepts, such as conspicuous consumption and the role of leisure in economic life, positioning his work within the broader context of contemporary economic thought and social critique. Thorstein Veblen, an American economist and sociologist, was profoundly influenced by the cultural complexities and socio-economic disparities of his time. His background in the newly emerging field of sociology and his critical stance against the prevailing economic doctrines fueled his quest to dissect the societal constructs surrounding economics. Veblen's work is often seen as a forerunner to institutional economics, as he questioned the underlying assumptions of classical economics and highlighted the importance of cultural and social factors in shaping economic behavior. I highly recommend "Business & Economics - Premium Collection" to any reader seeking a deeper understanding of the human elements in economic transactions. Veblen's sharp analysis and conceptual clarity provide an indispensable lens for examining the contradictions and dynamics of modern capitalism, making this collection a vital resource for students, scholars, and anyone interested in the interplay between society and economy.

Untapped Leadership - Harnessing...

Jenny Vazquez-Newsum

When searching the top leadership books of today, words like war, laws, and power appear slightly aggressively across covers. And, it doesn't take long to notice that those books are predominantly written by white men. While that fact certainly does not invalidate the valuable lessons for leaders within those pages, aren't we missing perspectives and contributions from leaders with additional challenges to overcome? 
 
 
 
Untapped Leadership examines strategies, capabilities, and contributions from leaders of color and marginalized backgrounds from all walks of life and career stages. Highlighting diverse stories and strategies, this groundbreaking book reveals a different kind of leadership, one that requires an advanced understanding of situational awareness, organizational dynamics, and sound decision-making. Far from being a book only for leaders of color, Untapped Leadership shows that the lessons grounded in BIPOC leadership are lessons for anyone and everyone looking to bring a more nuanced and contextual perspective towards navigating life and careers. 
 
 
 
Untapped Leadership is the first step towards moving beyond behavioral or situational leadership models towards a more inclusive and impactful model of contextual leadership by expanding the discourse to include and value marginalized perspectives.
